THE POETIC REPERCUSSION: A POETIC & MUSICAL NARRATIVE

The Poetic Repercussion is an expansive poetic and musical work that traverses the landscapes of culture, memory, and imagination. Its 101 “tracks” and 20 “interludes” unfold inside a metaphorical “psychiatrist’s chair,” where stories, reflections, and lyrical riffs meet.

Drawing from nature, love, politics, philosophy, athletics, education, spirituality, hip hop, racism, and war, the book blends traditional poetic craft with prose, spoken-word cadence, and musical influence. It is a work defined by breadth, vulnerability, and a commitment to exploring the threads that tie together personal and collective experience.
